The flashing airflow segment turns ON (green) and the next segment begins to flash indicating set the next digit.
When the 4th digit is selected, all 4 airflow segments turn OFF.

TESTING:
Note that the Laser detector LEDs, which are controlled by the Fire Panel, must be turned ON to activate the front
panel Alarm
indicators
Magnet Test:
The alarm signalling can be tested for functionality by placing a
test magnet in the position shown in Figure 10
(refer Page 4). This method does not test the air flow in the pipe-work
Smoke Testing:
The system alarm response can be tested for functionality
using smoke. The choice of smoke source is
dependent on the
installation but Pertronic industries recommends the use of a Smoke Pen (PN: SMOKEPEN)
In all cases the smoke must be present for the
duration of the test.
Smoke pellets or matches can be used close
to the sampling point to introduce smoke particulates into the
system. It is recommended that smoke with a particulate life cycle
of greater than 120 seconds should be used
–
standard aerosol sprays for
point detector testing do not work well on aspirated systems and therefore a re not
recommended.
Fault Testing:
Simulate a fault on the detector (for example, block the outlet pipe)
and check that a fault is signalled on both the
front panel of the unit
and at the Fire Panel.
